Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some artists can have several thousand ratings)
This artist is rated in the top 5% of all artists on BestEverAlbums.com. This artist has a Bayesian average rating of 78.8/100, a mean average of 77.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.8/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 17.6.

Host of the Seraphim is by far one of the most haunting songs you will ever hear. Elizabeth Fraser's voice is heavenly.
For me, totally unique, although their sound has been copied by lesser groups.

Great and unique band, music that takes you away. Brendan Perry's voice is awesome.

The great band to listen on the live show. They are magically wonderful when performing at the stage, Lisa's voice penetrates deeply inside your soul and body.
Utterly unique, heave sent music. 2 great voices, an amazing soundscape and some of the most inspiring songwriting ever. Love this band.

Eerie and very powerful kind of stuff.
No point in going for a "best of" album if you want to get introduced to their material. It wouldn't make sense. Their albums have a begining a middle and an end, with emotions progressing. So, the point is that you have to listen to the real stuff...
Aion, Within the Realm of a Dying Sun or The Serpent's Egg might be good albums to start from.
